We're always looking for different agencies to get involved and with our aim to involve a different group of people in organising each event we'll need a fresh batch for Meetdraw 6 in the summer. Its good to know <a href="http://www.appius.com/" rel="nofollow">Appius</a>, along with so many other agencies, are still going strong and helping to promote the industry in and around Bournemouth. There aren't plans to redo the list as it was purely there to illustrate a point, however I think Matt Desmier of the Dorset Design Forum has a more definitive list and is looking to build on it in the future. Hopefully see you at Meetdraw 5. Thanks stuart.

Thanks for the diagrams they were very intersting particularly as I moved back into the area in 2004 so it gave me a bit of extra history! Appius has also been around in the area since we started in 1998 so if you are doing an update it would be nice to see us in the first diagram too. Best wishes, Stuart Lane - Appius Hi Paul,

Also a small but relevant point : Walker Agency (from your second graphic above) are 15 years old in 2010 so definitely in the blue, 8+ camp :) Great conversation going on here guys and girls – and to throw my two pennies in regarding execution – great ideas aren’t difficult to come by if you understand the requirements, constraints and channels – but without strong, focused execution it all falls flat very quickly.

Lying somewhere on my desk, written on a ropey old piece of paper with dog-eared corners and coffe mug stains, Ive a list that has 248 Dorset-based agencies on it... A couple of these have yet to herald the brave new dawn and still insist on specialising in print-based design, but surely you designers can turn your hand to anything? Can we/you (certainly not me) start another list that gives people a chance to, for want of a better word, advertise that they exist? Perhaps joining up here for instance: www.dorsetdesignforum.com All jolly good work there fellas – but i have to say, i feel for the guys NOT on the list.

Just found out about Meetdraw from the page in the Dorset Business magazine/paper. Another please add me request, We are DSM Design and started up in 1986 and still going strong. Which we think makes us one of the longest running agencies in the area. Very interesting article, and nice list!
